The one-thousand-apartment buildings within nine years of completion were never inhabited due to litigation.

In the capital of India, New Delhi, two high-rise buildings were demolished, which were built with violations of building and fire safety standards. The video of the explosion on August 28 was broadcast by local TV channels.

As reported, the destruction of 100-meter buildings became an example of the city authorities’ struggle with corruption in the construction industry.

Thus, the 32- and 29-story buildings with a thousand apartments were never occupied for nine years after construction was completed due to litigation.

The skyscrapers were demolished with 3,700 kg of explosives. Nearby residents had to be evacuated. They were asked not to return home for at least ten hours until the dust from the explosion had settled.

Earlier in Germany, an old bridge 72 meters high was demolished with the help of controlled demolition, which was the first case in the country of destroying a bridge of such height.
